i suppose it depends on how you define rarest.
my rarest would be Acropora speciosa, loripes, caroliniana, jacquelinia, turaki, granulosa,

[surfn]

as far as named ones go...

i've had in my possesion:
-superman monti
-sunset monti
-leng-sy cap
-idaho grape cap
-flower petal monti cap
-tyree soli
-ORA purple pillow
-ORA australian delicate
-ORA scipps pink milli
-pink milli with blue tips
-some unknown coral that is green with blue tips
-yellow verracussa with blue polyps

but i think my rarest of those is my montipora undata, grows at a snails pace...but i dont know anyone else personally with it.

i think the rarest coral i have in my tank is a green polyped acropora geminifera. when its happy it has a purple base or tips. i've been growing it out since it was a 1cm frag. i've rarely seen people post pics of geminifera acros.

[pookstreet]

Here's a couple of mine that are some of my favorites.

M. undata. It actually grows pretty fast for me.

Tyree Steve Elias Stag

 

[chadfarmer]

i also have but didnt thank they were rare

leng-sy cap
tyree soli
ORA scipps pink milli
GARF tri-color

 

[Raptor]

Too many to list and my pics suck so i'll spare you guys.
One thing i like about acro's is the tree like formations. A nice full tank with overgrown acro's is a sweet one. No matter haw many LE or rare corals are in it.

 

[chads29]

Chips acro

red milli

toxic green milli
I don't really see any of these sps as being "rare" but they are nice corals

 

[JGoslee]

Chads29 that toxic green milli is sweet!

 

[chads29]

thanks, I will be able to trade in the near future.

 

[chads29]

here is a frag of my pink tulip milli that I recieved from Atlantis Aquarium

 

[Randy]

Here is a coral that most people don't have or want.

Up until yesterday I thought it was a sps. I never thought it was a jellyfish.none the less this is a cool thing.The way it grows is different than any other.The guy I got this frag from said it hurts as bad as a jellyfish sting.I have not tested it yet.

Cnidaria phylum
Fire coral is actually a relative of coral called a hydrozoan or hydroid or an animal related to coral that has two life forms—the polyp and the medusa. And as a hydrozoan, fire coral is more closely related to sea jellies than true coral.

here is one that not to many people have.
Acropora parilis
